Fertilizers 80357

A rectangular bed 3960 cm long and 825 cm wide needs to be divided into several equal square sectors on which scientists will test different fertilizers. Into what is the smallest number of sectors this bed can be divided?

Correct answer:

n =  120

Step-by-step explanation:

a=3960 cm b=825 cm  3960=2332511 825=35211 GCD(3960,825)=3511=165  x=GCD(a,b)=GCD(3960,825)=165 cm  S1 = a b S2 = x x n = S2S1 = x xa b = xa xb=n1 n2  n1=a/x=3960/165=24 n2=b/x=825/165=5  n=n1 n2=24 5=120
